Jing Jian took the water bag from the hand of a soldier beside him, took a few sips and put the water bag beside him, turned his head to look at the five thousand Qin soldiers who were repairing, and everyone showed a tired look on their faces.

It has been two days since the departure from Liyang City, and counting the one day spent on dispatching the army, the current Yuanyuan City has been besieged by Rongdi's enemies for three days.

Liyang City is thousands of miles away from Fenyuan City, and even if you rush non-stop at night, it will take three days to reach Fenyuan City. If you include the rest of the soldiers and the rest and feeding time of the war horses, three days is already the limit that can be achieved.

In the past two days, not only were the soldiers very tired, but the horses also seemed to be a little physically exhausted, so in order to ensure their combat strength, Jing Jian slowed down the speed of his march. It was also for this reason that it took two days to travel 600 miles.

"I'm going to kill them all." Jing Jian slammed his fist on the ground, as if to vent the boredom in his heart. Through many investigations, this time, the sixteen tribes of Rongdi almost hollowed out their families, and only then did they make up 30,000 soldiers.

If the 30,000 Rongdi tribes on weekdays are not placed in the eyes of his Jingjian, tens of thousands of border troops and the defenders in various cities together can also have the power to fight with these 30,000 invading enemies, but because the Qin State is preparing to launch a war recently, in order to recover the land west of the river in one fell swoop, the border army and some of the troops in each city were transferred very early, which led to the lack of strength of the border defenders and gave the Rongdi tribe a chance to invade.

It's just that this time is too accurate, the soldiers and horses in the Wei State are frequently mobilized, and the attention of the Qin State is all on the Wei side, but at such a critical moment, the 30,000 troops of the sixteen tribes of Rong Di invaded the border of the Qin State. Is all this a coincidence? Jing Jian kept thinking in his heart.

However, the thing that was anxious in Jing Jian was not only because of the lack of troops in Yuanyuan City, but also because of the child named Qin Chuan.

The relationship between Guogong and the woman is known to both him and Daliangzao. The two people who were originally a match made in heaven were separated forever. And the woman also died for unknown reasons after giving birth to Qin Chuan, originally thought that this matter would be over, and Qin Chuan, who was still in infancy, appeared in the Guogong Mansion.

When Qin Guogong saw the appearance of the child, he immediately remembered the woman who had been thinking about it for a long time, but he didn't care much about Qin Chuan, or since Qin Chuan was sent to Yongcheng, this kind of care has become less and less.

Guogong didn't want to deny this blood relationship, but whenever he saw this child, Guogong would think of the woman, think of the mountain alliance and sea oath between the two, and sound the woman's death, and whenever Guogong was full of guilt at this time, he couldn't even concentrate on government affairs.

Sending Qin Chuan away was a joint decision between him and Wei Ying, although he was sorry for Qin Chuan, but it ensured that the government affairs of Qin State could be carried out smoothly. However, from beginning to end, whether it was him and Wei Ying, they still felt guilty about Qin Chuan, perhaps this was one of the reasons why Wei Ying guarded Qin Chuan against the students.

After discarding the complicated thoughts in his heart, Jing Jian stood up and said to the soldiers behind him to go, and in an instant, five thousand soldiers stepped on their horses fluently and continued to run in the direction of Fenyuan City.

According to Jing Jian's calculations, he will definitely be able to reach Mianzhu City before dark, rest there for the night, and prepare to rush towards Yuanyuan City tomorrow.

War seems to be coming soon, and I hope that this time the Rongdi tribe will be wiped out. Jing Jian clenched the horsewhip in his hand and slammed it on the body of the horse that sat down.

Mianzhucheng, today came a middle-aged fat man, dressed in a wide and simple black shirt, carrying two big packages on his back, and beside the middle-aged man was followed by a thin young man who looked like a man, the young man held a handful of melon seeds in his hand, knocked while walking, and muttered something that only middle-aged people could understand.

"Young Master, are we really going to Linyuan City? Isn't it good to be in Chencang City? The small shop that had just improved was sold at a loss, young master, you really don't think about it? The young man turned his head to look at the man beside him, and said with a slightly unkind face.

Seeing the appearance of the young man, the middle-aged fat man who was about to speak suddenly closed his mouth and turned his head to look at the pedestrians next to him, as if he hadn't heard anything.

"Young master, if you do this again, I will ignore you." The thin young man's face suddenly became a little ugly and said.

The middle-aged fat man ignored the words of the young man next to him, and still looked at the side.

The thin young man was suddenly a little aggrieved, frowned, carefully put the melon seeds in his hand into a pocket on his body, and stretched out a hand to quickly twist around the fat man's waist.

The middle-aged fat man's face suddenly became bared and grinned, but the ninja still didn't look back.

The thin young man saw that the most powerful means didn't work, his eyes rolled, and then he reached out and grabbed the sleeve of the middle-aged fat man, and his voice also had a hint of coquettishness: "Young master, young master, don't leave me!" ”

The thin young man's movements immediately attracted the attention of the pedestrians around him, especially the slight hint of a woman's voice in the young man's voice, which made the surrounding pedestrians start pointing at the two.

When the middle-aged fat man heard this voice, he quickly turned his head and said with a flattering smile on his face: "I admit defeat, I can't admit defeat." ”

The thin boy snorted proudly, loosened the sleeves of the middle-aged fat man, took out melon seeds from his pocket and continued to knock them.

"My son, I observe the stars every day, and the emperor star is revealed in the direction of Linyuan City, it seems that there is a great opportunity, and the people of great blessing are coming, but Chen Cangcheng is an evil dragon is about to be born, and if you don't leave at this time, you will wait for when." The middle-aged fat man said mysteriously to the thin young man beside him.

The thin young man glanced at the middle-aged fat man, but he said in his mouth while snorting melon seeds: "When did the son learn to read the stars?" How did I not know? Childe, talk to me and listen to ......"

The middle-aged fat man laughed a few times in embarrassment.

The middle-aged fat man and the thin boy are the owners and buddies of the restaurant in Chen Cangcheng. A few days ago, I don't know what the middle-aged fat boss thought of, and after selling the restaurant that was gradually getting better half sold and half given away to a rich man, he left Chen Cangcheng with a very reluctant partner.

Seeing that it was getting late, the two found an inn to prepare for a night's stay, and continued to hurry tomorrow morning.

When night fell, the city gate was closed, and at this time, a pair of soldiers outside the city of Mianzhu rode on war horses and rushed towards the city of Mianzhu with torches.

This brigade of men and horses is even the five thousand Qin cavalry led by Jing Jian. The guards of the city had already received the news, and led the five thousand soldiers towards the camp that had been prepared.

The originally quiet military camp suddenly became noisy, and Jing Jian sat in the camp tent, and reported through the soldiers who stayed behind that the general who defended the city had led two thousand soldiers to the city yesterday.

Jing Jian was not impressed by the general who guarded the city, but he knew that the general had some skills, and he was always relieved to worry about Yuanyuan City in his heart.

"Hopefully they'll be able to hold on a little longer." This was Jing Jian's last thought before going to bed.

At this time, Jing Jian with a relaxed face didn't expect how angry he would be when he saw that shocking scene tomorrow.

In a dilapidated room in the General's Mansion in Yuanyuan City, Old Man Sun had changed his clothes and was lying on the bed, while next to him was a circle of soldiers in armor, and the general defending the city looked at Old Man Sun lying on the bed with an angry face.

"It's really a waste, I should have changed someone if I knew it, how could I have a timid person like you in Daqin." The general who defended the city finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart and scolded angrily.

Everyone stood aside and was silent, Qin Chuan was also among the crowd, but he was outside the crowd, and he couldn't see the situation inside at all.

A Lang Zhong sat on the edge of the bed and inserted silver needles into Old Man Sun's body, and as the silver needles were continuously inserted, Old Man Sun's face gradually became ruddy.

After a while, as the silver needles were pulled out of Old Man Sun's body, a bead of sweat appeared on Old Man Sun's forehead, and soon a soft snort came out of his mouth, and he slowly opened his eyes.

When Old Man Sun opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was at his body.

"Don't look at it, the clothes have been changed, what a waste, hurry up and say, what happened?" The general guarding the city watched Old Man Sun wake up and hurriedly asked.

Old man Sun wanted to get up, but he was also pressed on the bed by the general guarding the city, looking at Old Man Sun with eager eyes.

Old man Sun has been in the General's Mansion for so many years, and it is the first time he has seen the general defending the city show such an urgent appearance, so he did not dare to delay and said the request of the leader of Rongdi.

"What, ten times the number of jewels, and half the grain? That's how your negotiations turned out? You're damned out there. Waste, waste. The general who defended the city roared angrily, and his angry eyes seemed to eat Old Man Sun.

"General, those Rong Di barbarians said that if they don't see these things tomorrow, they will start attacking the city." Old man Sun said with difficulty.

In a word, the originally angry general defending the city was like a deflated balloon, and lost all his spirit in an instant.

Qin Chuan stood behind everyone, and also heard what Old Man Sun said, although he was also very angry that the general defending the city used himself as a bargaining chip, but what was even more angry was that they actually exchanged silver money and food for a short period of peace. Shouldn't they have instigated the Qin people in the whole city to revolt? Even if the army is weak, it is very difficult for the Rongdi army, which has no siege weapons, to break through a city.

Don't they even have the guts to give it a try?

Qin Chuan was very disappointed in them. I wanted to leave quietly like this, but thinking of the simple Qin people in the city, those kind children, and the sincere smiles on the faces of the Qin people, he still couldn't make up his mind and left.

"Just for those Qin people." Qin Chuan muttered quietly.

After just such a moment, the general defending the city became re-energized, and said to the soldiers around him with a smile: "Those Rongdi barbarians, they sit on the ground and raise the price, won't we sit on the ground and pay the money?" Tomorrow prepare more jewelry and other things, food must not be given to them, and they will not have the courage to attack the city. ”

"What are we going to do if we do attack the city?" A soldier beside him asked

The general defending the city showed a mysterious smile, looking like he was winning, and said to everyone: "Just do as I say, if you really attack the city tomorrow, I will naturally have a way to make the enemy of Rong Di retreat without a fight." ”

Everyone responded, and then the general of the city garrison left here with a group of soldiers, and began to arrange the handover of the east and west tomorrow, as well as the matters of defending the city.

After everyone left, Qin Chuan walked up to Old Man Sun, looked at the old man's face, and said seriously: "Old man, what happened?" Are those Rongdi armies really going to attack the city? ”

Old man Sun glanced at Qin Chuan with indifferent eyes, ignored Qin Chuan's words, closed his eyes and prepared to continue sleeping.

Qin Chuan was a little angry at Old Man Sun's indifference, but he couldn't think of any good way, so he pulled out a long sword from behind his back and put it against Old Man Sun's neck.

Old man Sun, who had his eyes closed, suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the long sword on his neck, his face was on the side, and his voice trembled a little and pleaded: "Little brother, don't be joking, be careful of hurting people." ”

Qin Chuan didn't speak, and used a little strength in his hand.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you what's the matter, quickly put away the long sword, put it away." Old man Sun said with some unnaturalness on his face.

Qin Chuan moved the long sword in his hand a little, Old Man Sun sat up from the bed, stretched his neck and looked out of the door, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, looked at Qin Chuan's serious face, sighed, and said everything he saw.

Putting the long sword in his hand back behind his back, Qin Chuan walked to the side and lowered his head in thought.

"The Rongdi tribe did not attack the city, but swept the surrounding villages, as if they were waiting for something, waiting for something...... Qin Chuan muttered quietly.

After pondering for a moment, a bold idea emerged from his heart, and then lingered, and in an instant, Qin Chuan's face became a little ugly.
